Yep, t'was me.

It's my third Aristo, but my first MK2, the other two were MK1s.

Very similar cars, just a more modern interior to the MK1.

Car's alright, advert was missing a few things, but I've covered that in my intro thread Big Grin

Gord I remember driving it from London to Manchester and them brakes are fantastic at stopping you :biggrin:

A mate of mine who's driven it said "they don't so much slow the car down, but more stop the earth from rotating" Big Grin


I don't know who fitted the brakes, but the wheel in the picture, the disc is the wrong way round to the rest, there really are some donkeys out there :Chair:

Hmm, to me that brake looks the right way round. the air slinging out the back of the disc?

so the others point the other way?

I think that more important than the direction of the slots is the direction of the internal venting vanes in the disc. The slots may or may not point in the same direction as the vanes.

You're very correct Big Grin although it can also depend on the veins, which I haven't checked yet.

Either way, they're not all the same Big Grin
